We had a lot of fun. The property was everything we had hoped for. The neighborhood is way set back off the beaten path, but not too horribly much. Overall was a fun little cottage. Wifi worked, but we had to reset the router and modem to get it work. Lake channel access which we didn't use, but a nice place. The neighbors were a little creepy tho. They kept glaring at us. They were kind, but creepy. Overall got a snooty vibe from a small cottage community. If you're chill, it will be fine.

We throughly enjoyed our stay. The house is fully supplied with everything you would need for a stay. We enjoyed being on the water however the canal was too shallow for us to dock our boat. But no worries, the cottage is within minutes of the boat launch in beautiful Ludington state park. And, only a few miles from the boat launch in downtown Ludington. The area is packed with things to do.

The house is very clean and cozy. It has everything you need in the kitchen. Great location with dock access to the lake via a channel. We loved being so close to the State Park. This place will not disappoint.

We had a great time at this cottage! The area was quiet and peaceful, neighbors were so kind and we had all that we needed and more! This location doesn’t skimp on beautiful Sights to see and is located near a small more private lake and beach area that is great for kids! Host was very responsive with any questions leading up to the trip and also throughout!

This was a really nice little cottage that sat on a canal that fed into Hamlin lake. It was super clean and quite well equipped with everything you could need in the kitchen, plenty of towels, and sheets, and even beach towels. It was incredibly close to Ludington State Park and unbeknownst to us, there is a terrific and very clean little lake with wonderful sand just behind the property within walking distance. Our Littles really enjoyed that lake because it was so shallow and clean. It was also a little warmer than Lake Michigan. The canal that is in front of the property, unfortunately is slow moving and was full of algae slime, probably from ChemLawn run off throughout the canal neighborhood. Regardless, the kids loved the little beach area by the canal and we also used the fire pit down there to make s’more’s. There were a fair number of nail pops on the pier area, which made us make sure all the kids had shoes on down there. If I had a hammer, I would’ve tapped them in myself. I wish there would’ve been an outside spigot that we could’ve used to wash the sand off of the kids before they came into the house. We did the best we could, and it was not a major issue. I just like to try to treat other peoples property as if it was my own. The unit was fully stocked with everything you needed to have an enjoyable time. Spices, coffee, soap, paper products, etc. The only suggestion I have is that the sofa bed be replaced or guest should bring a blowup bed

Very clean property located near state park and Hamlin Lake. Property had all needed amenities and was perfect for a family of 4. Checkin and checkout were very easy. We will definitely plan to stay here again the next time we stay in the Ludington area.

Property was exactly what we were looking for in a fall getaway. What a beautiful setting. Very close to the State park. Short drive to Ludington. We visited Baldwin, Branch, Scottville, Heston, Manistee lovely area. The cottage it self was laid out nice. Very clean and well stocked. Was very enjoyable eating breakfast in the 3 season room over looking the channel. Would definitely stay here again. Thank you for sharing your slice of Heaven.

This quaint bungalow on the water was a great getaway spot for a quiet few days of relaxation. Clean and cozy.

I loved this property the minute we drove up and especially when we walked in the door!! It far exceeded my expectations and the pictures don’t do it justice!! We did a fall color tour and this location was perfect!! Minutes from downtown Ludington and Lake Michigan! Within driving distance to the places we had mapped out! This house has everything you need!! Towels, extra bedding, washer and dryer!! Host supplies toilet paper, paper towel, cleaning supplies and even coffee and filters!! Also water in the fridge!! We left extra bottles for the next guests!! Beautiful sunroom and outdoor space right on the canal with a fire pit!! I highly recommend this property!! You will not be disappointed!! Thank you again for a fantastic stay!! We would definitely stay here again!!

Great location with plenty of room. We would recommend staying at Sweetwater Cottage to anyone.

Ideal for Lake Michigan lovers. Quiet peaceful cabin community that makes you feel like you’ve come home. If you love the Ludington State Park, you will love the location. The cabin is clean, bright and well put together.

Ludington is a great place to visit. We took the USS Badger across Lake Michigan and stayed at this adorable home right on a canal to Lake Hamlin. Beautiful piece of property with access to fishing. It was clean and well equipped. I want to give it 5 stars but our friends were not able to use the guest shower (plumbing problem) and the master bath showerhead was a bit challenging. The back sliding door was difficult to use as well. We made the host aware and I’m sure they will remedy it. Overall we really enjoyed our time in this home. The hosts provided great tips for local places (pizza place is very good). There’s a great ice cream shop in town called House of Flavors. There’s also a gorgeous beach in town. We would love to come back to this area one day and despite the couple of issues, we do recommend this place as I’m sure the hosts will address the problems we encountered.

Nice location, fit our needs well.

My family and I really enjoyed our stay at this property. The amenities were spot-on and the location was perfect - right on Hamlin, close to town, and just steps away from a hidden gem of a beach right on the other side of Piney Ridge Rd.

Very pleasant, relaxing and quiet!! Thanks so much!

This cottage is perfect for our little family of four! We love the proximity of the State Park and the short drive to downtown Ludington!

Thank you much for letting us stay. It was a beautiful home and great docking for my pontoon. Home has everything you need. Neighbors were very nice as well!! We will be back. Thank you!!

We loved every minute of our stay. The location of this property was perfect for us. We would definitely stay here again.

Very nice and clean home. Well equipped amenities. Quick and easy contact with property contact. Lots to do in Ludington.

Couldn’t be closer to Ludington state park. Great place! Eat at Jamesport brewery! Yummmm

This little cottage was the perfect size for our family of four and in the perfect location! Just a short drive to all that the Ludington area has to offer!

Property and facility are very well maintained and comfprtable.

We thoroughly enjoyed our stay. The cottage was so comfortable and peaceful. Our host was so helpful and welcoming. We definitely would stay here again

We had a wonderful few days here. The home was more than we had hoped for. Super clean, spacious and peaceful. My kids enjoyed fishing from the dock, campfires on the beach at night and playing in the yard. We rented a boat on Hamlin Lake, walked the trails, hung out at the beach, rented ATVs in Silver Lake and overall made beautiful memories there. We will definitely be back!

Had a wonderful time here. Great location, very clean, stocked with anything you could possible need. No issues at all.

Clean, friendly host, right on inlet waterway canal, 3 miles from downtown, and close to state park trails.

We had nice mornings drinking coffee on the deck watching the sunrise ☀️ over the water in the mornings. Very quiet neighborhood on a dead end road with only a few homes. Very close to Lake Michigan & the State Park just 1 mile away. Nice to have a gas grill to enjoy a quiet dinner at the house. There is a nice sandy beach area right in front of the canal w/ a fire pit & first bundle of wood supplied for a nice fire after a day at the beach. We had a wonderful time and will stay again.

Excellent communication, home had everything you would ever need to enjoy your time on the lake! Definitely will stay again!! A++++

The location was ideal--close to many attractions and on the water. There was a dock for our fishing boat and easy access to the canals and Hamlin Lake and its bayous. The amenities were great and it was very comfortable and peaceful. We highly recommend this rental.

This Home is a Perfect stay if your looking for Great Scenery & Access to the Lake. Plus your own personal Dock if your Bringing a Boat. This Place hit all the check marks. Clean & everything we needed was already there. Owners are Great people & easy to work with.

This house was great and exceeded our expectations. A perfect spot on a channel just off the South end of Lower Hamlin Lake. This home had everything we needed and was very clean. The owners were great to work with and very responsive. We had all the necessities of home (coffee maker, TV, cable, Streaming device, microwave, toaster, washer/dryer, gas grill, dishwasher, WIFI, etc. Both bedrooms were nice and comfortable. The master bath has a great tub / shower while the other bathroom has a small walk in shower. The lake was amazing with crystal clear water and great fishing. The home offers up a nice dock area for your boat and also has a sandy beach section with fire pit. If you don’t want to tackle the big lake there is a large network of channels that are great for kayaking or a slow boat cruise. The house is located in a semi-private area near the end of a gravel road and is very peaceful. The neighboring houses were very quiet and kept to themselves and probably appreciated us doing the same. This is not an area for parties, loud music, or large gatherings. There is parking for two vehicles in the driveway and another vehicle /trailer across the street if needed. Downtown Ludington is only 10 minutes away and offers up many dining and entertainment options. We highly recommend this rental and can’t wait to visit this gem again next year. We have rented dozens of places on VRBO and this is one of our favorites so far.
